Speaking exclusively with Sporting TV after Saturday's training session, the midfielder reflected on his time in Lisbon so far.
"It was my first training session, so I am a bit tired. It is normal. We are at the start of pre-season, but the two weeks we have done so far have been excellent. The most important thing is that we keep up the pace now and I feel great. The players have made me feel really welcome and I am really happy with everyone. We have great facilities here now and it is up to us to put the work in."
The Serbian international went on to reveal what Jorge Jesus had already shared with him: "I am still at the beginning. The coach showed me what he wants me to do in my position. I am trying to take on everything, so that I am ready for the start of the season. Today we trained with the B team and it was important for us to iron out any mistakes. I see a lot of quality in the squad, with four in the Portuguese national tam right now. There are a lot of really talented young players here and the atmosphere is great."
